Mr. Jeff Teague of First Response Group, Inc. Came to our home and evaluated our house for a roof which was damaged in Hurricane Wilma. After measuring twice and investigating the tile choice we had made a contract was issued and signed on 6/26/06. A deposit check was tendered for $6000.00 to begin the work.
8 weeks later Mr. Teague informed us that he would have to increase the amount of our contract by $15,000. As luck would have it we also has an estimate for exactly the same tile and work from another reputable company for roughly 2 thousand more dollars.
I contacted Mr. Richard John Gulash Jr. Who holds the contractors license in the State of FLorida. Lic CCC1326746. Mr. Gulash claimed the sales person (Mr. Teague) had made a mistake. After 3 successive phone calls Mr. Gulash agreed to find another tile and to meet the price of the alternative roofing company who also had estimated the job. Mr. Gulash called and confirmed another tile and said he would have my roof on in 4 weeks (roughly 9/15/06).
I requested copies of my permit that he told me was complete and a timeline for removing the old roof and prepping the roof for the new tile to prevent further damage.
Since the phone call mid August Mr. Gulash has not returned any of my phone calls. Requests for copies have been ignored and a request for the return of my depoist has been ignored.
